In what has become something of a Hollywood legend, the Legally Blonde star was pulled over in Atlanta with her husband, Jim Toth, on April 19. Toth, 43, was put through a field sobriety test, while officers told Witherspoon to remain in her vehicle. The actress, who later said she "clearly had one drink too many," refused to stay in the car and began shouting at the law enforcer, "Do you know my name?"

She added to the police officer, "You're about to find out who I am… You are going to be on national news."

Witherspoon, who was charged with disorderly conduct for the incident, stars in Don't Mess with Texas alongside Sofia Vergara and Michael Mosley. The movie began filming in New Orleans earlier this month.
